Has this ever happened to you?
In my life, there is a lot to times where I would sit by the window of the class room and stare into the leafs of the tree. Watching it slowly sway from one side to another as it gets pushed gently by the breeze. As I start staring, my mind starts to wonder. "The wind is beautiful and soft. Pushing gently on the leafs. I wonder if the leafs can actually feel that or not. I wonder why we (as humans) can feel it but not them. What is the point of being able to feel all this anyways? All these sensations in life is pulling away from our realisation of the suffering we get in our lives. What is even the purpose of our lives? Just like this wind. It will stop.  Just like our lives, it will end. So then what is the meaning of life? what is the meaning of the tree’s life? what is the meaning of the wind’s life? what is the meaning of my life?"
other examples can also be the times when I look at something really simple that is happening to everyone in life such as our common addictions. Smoking, Drugs, Sex. I look at our basic needs. Water, food, Oxygen. And I think to myself why we are bound to our physical existence and not floating freely in the air. Wouldn’t it be nice if we didn’t need to depend on temptations in order to feel content? Or if we didn’t even have a body to satisfy? Why do we need to have this body? Why do we need to have this life? what is the meaning of such a life? what is the meaning of anyone’s life?
I saw a video once of a father who helped his mentally disabled
child fulfil his dream of wanting to play soccer. If you would
like to watch the sort 2 minute video, click the buttons below:
The first reaction I had is always the same as what everyone would
have. This is horrible. I felt sorry for the boy. More so, I felt
sorry for the father which had so much love for this boy. The boy
always wanted to be a sportsman so the father rapped him onto his
legs and walked him around the grass. Once the boy started to drop
saliva out of his mouth, his dad would take a napkin and wipe his
mouth. Isn’t this such a heart breaking video to watch? What my
mind went to is always the same. "What is the meaning of the boy’s
life? what is the meaning of the father’s life? Why do both of
these people have to go through so much suffering just to survive
a couple of years before they pass away? What is the meaning of
life?"
So last time, I spoke about the experiment that I went through to get different people’s understanding of what is the meaning of life.

What is the Meaning of Life?
This post I want to show you my reflections on what is the meaning of life. Be prepared that this post will be a deep read because this post will contain some of my deepest thoughts I have kept to myself over the past decade. Not much people get to tap into my thoughts unless I am willing to provide a little slice of it to you. But then again, who isn’t like that, right? So I just want to let you know that this post might be very subjective to my personal understanding
Toby as a subject
We spoke about Toby the ant before. If you want to read up about
his posts:
Toby the Ant
Toby plays a strong role in many of my explanations. The reason why Toby places such a role in my explanations is because the life of an ant is something that we can observe. One that we can see from a higher perspective. Scientists has actually studied the life of ants and saw that there is a massive empire of ants below the ground and they, also, server a king or queen. Strange isn’t it? This sounds like humans being under control of their government and president.
So let us put ourselves in the shoes of Toby. If Toby was in the ages of great struggle. All the paths have been surrounded by rocks. Toby finally risks himself to try the new path and breaks through to a tunnel that allowed the ants to continue their survival. What was the meaning of Toby’s life? to create a new life for the swamp of ants? Maybe. Some of the people in our lives we can see which represent such. Mother Theresa saving tons of people. Steve Jobs leading the creation of a new revolution of technology and I can go on.
So now, what happens if Toby was just an ordinary ant collecting his food for the queen day in and day out? Repeated the same job over and over again? What is the meaning of Toby’s life then? Just to collect food, survive and wait to die one day? This is where the question starts to settle in. People try to become the Toby that breaks into a new world rather than Toby that is absolutely normal.
So now, even more to ask when Toby is born with only 2 legs. Then he cannot even collect food. He can only wait to die one day and burden the surrounding people that he loves dearly. Never knowing how to repay their efforts.
Yes, obviously, it will be debatable in terms of what these three different types of Toby could have rather meant through their lives. I am mainly going to focus on the second type of Toby because that shows a great portion of our population.
So according to what Toby can see, in his daily life, it is all about collecting food. Just like how humans have to work hard to earn their money to pay off bills to have food on the table. Toby decided that life isn’t just about collecting food and surviving until he dies. Why would he want to live such a life? what is the point in living only to die one day? Does his life even have a meaning to the rest of the world? Your life? my life? maybe to an ant-eater’s life. Toby is food in that case. So if Toby got eaten by an Ant Eater, would Toby’s life be considered serving the survival of another creature? Can you imagine a life where we live (going to school, getting a job, etc), just to "serve" someone else’s survival?
So Toby thought that the best thing to do is to be happy about life. All ants want to just be happy. When we fed, we are happy. When we see our children, we are happy. So Toby started Taking drugs because it made him happy. Addiction got to him and he realised that this wasn’t the true meaning of life. this was just there for him to temporarily escape the reality that he needs to face. Chancing after happiness is like chancing after that feeling you got the first time you fell in love, the first time you got tipsy with alcohol, the first time you started chasing the dragon, the first time you bought a car, the first time you got promoted. Life is more than this.
Toby started to think, what if I can change other ant’s lives? Maybe I can make their lives better. He started to go out of his way to help other ants after hours and started to clean up the mess that other ants did so that other ants had less to worry about. He started going into saving ants as a fireman and a medic. He started taking care of other ants that need help such as the ones who were born defective. But he realised that he can save these ants once, or twice, but he cannot stop these ants from dying and suffering indefinitely. Life had to be more than just changing other Ant’s life.
So Toby encountered Ghosts and decided that life was more than
just to be happy. To read this post, click here:
A Glimpse of the New World
He realised that this world has something out there that is
greater than who we are.  This
started to make him feel like there is more meaning to this
miserable life of collecting food and waiting to die. So he spent
a lot of time spreading the word of such existence. In the
meantime, thinking to himself "What is the purpose of such
existence?"
So because of God’s grace and let us say that Toby really had the heart to find out what is the meaning of life, he got to come into a higher perspective and see the whole life of all of the ants as a whole work together to serve a common goal. Survival. Economy. Destiny. He started to understand how each Ant had a position to fil within the big economy of the ants. Each ant acted like a cell within a body to keep it alive and living.  The life of the whole swamp of Ants. And went back down into being an ant. But why? How is this anymore different than what I already know is wrong? Toby’s life purpose is to continue on the life of ants. Just like how biologist would say it. But what then is the purpose of letting me see all this from a higher perspective? Is the meaning of my life to serve the existence of the greater life? So what will happen if I malfunction within my position? Will the greater life get destroyed like a carcinogen cell creating cancer within a person? Or was this meant to happen?
What if … there was another life that the existence of this swamp of Ants were serving to survive? The Food chain. The Ecology. But why? Why do we need this? Is there something bigger than the Ecology? Probably is, the life of the planet, then the solar system, the galaxy, then the Universe. There must be something else other than survival that makes a meaning to all this cyclical process.
Human Life
This is when we will need to move away from Toby. He will not be able to help us any further. We as Humans have the ability to think. We have something called "wisdom" If we don’t think and we don’t have wisdom to judge what is right and what is wrong then how are we any different to all other wild animals? Because of our wisdom and knowledge, we were able to create building, technology, etc. There is clearly something different about us. It would be surprising to see buildings and technology built by a monkey or a dolphin. Fortunately, none of those animals have developed such. But why are we the chosen ones? Can animals really not think? Animals can think. Dogs can listen and understand their owner’s instructions. Ants can understand that their lives are in danger. Ants can understand that they are struggling in water. So why has none of those animals developed into something that can also establish technology and build cities?
I think before we answer that question, we need to take the concept of the Ant and place it upon our selves or a greater life form than just us. Is there another dimension? Spirits? Ghosts? God? If we can squish an ant with a rock, then is there a way for a higher power to cause a perfect timing for my breaks to fail when I am speeding?
The chances are high. So what is the meaning of our life to them? Is there anything that is even higher than them?
A lot of things start to be established through this understanding of the higher perspective. A lot of questions as well. What is the meaning of the life of the higher powers? Where is this higher power world? Where is this spiritual world? Is it in the same place as we are now? Like how we are actually in the same world Toby is in but Toby doesn’t know of my existence simply because he cannot see me? What do these "ghosts" want? What is the meaning of their lives?
This is where reincarnation starts to play a role in our understanding of what is the meaning of life. It can be easier explained in terms of Newton’s Law: "Energy cannot be destroyed or created. It can only be transferred from one form to another." So what happens when we die? Do we just pass on into heaven like that? If that is true, then why were we put down here in the first place? To finish a mission? To learn a lesson? Did we finish the mission in this life? Did we learn the lesson in this life? Or do we have another chance to learn the lesson? Another chance to finish the mission? Do we really only stay in this world in the form of human? Or can we become Toby? Or Chloe the fish? Or a spirit? Or a soul? Or a Ghost? If reincarnation is true, then what is this forever lasting "thing" that keeps cycling called? Let us just call it our soul. So now we need to start distinguishing the meaning of the life of our soul and the meaning of the life of our body. We can, for now, state that the meaning of life for our body is to act as a vehicle to perform whatever it is that our soul needs to complete. Whether it be a mission, learn a lesson, pay a debt, receive a fortune, etc.
So now, let us see what is the meaning of life in terms of our soul. If we really want to know what is the meaning of our soul, then we don’t need to waste the time in looking at the individual soul like how we did with Toby. We know that isn’t the final answer. Let us look at the collective eco system of souls in this world of ours. Coming and going. Birth and Death. Lessons and missions. For what? Why? Why do we, as a small piece of soul, play such a big role in the global eco system of souls?
The only way we can answer that last question is if we have a look at the understanding of why we have an eco system of souls. Ants as a whole work together to get to one purpose. Survival of ants. Can the eco system of souls be the same? For the survival of souls? Or is there something even deeper we can look into?
What if, we can transcend this human body for eternity? Wouldn’t we know even more? Understand things from an even greater perspective? Probably. So how do we get there? Through the help of many philosophers such as Confucius, Lao Zi, Buddha, Jesus Christ, we have tons of information on how we can get there. But since we are not there yet, maybe we can dig something out by comprehending their actions. They all spread the word of a higher power. They all said that they are the only living truth and only through them will one get to heaven. They all teach peace and love. They all teach benevolence and taught us to spread the word of God. Can we see a pattern? We need to transcend this physical world together. Our mission as individuals is to spread the understanding that we, all, need to transcend the physical body together. We can only do this by cutting off all the Cause and Effects that we still owe upon someone else, something else. When all our other missions on earth is completed. When our soul is clean. Toby can never server my meaning of life because he is too busy finishing his own meaning. He is too busy completing his meaning of life.
It is time for a great awakening of this world. I do think that we can create our own meanings. This is still however, dependant on our physical existence of our body. So we cannot forget the cause and affects that we can still create during our lives. Don’t get caught up in those, rather pursue a meaning that surpasses our small individual world.
And it is because people have this understanding, that is why there are people who believe that there are miracles and believe to serve God. These are all stated in my previous blog post. But the question now lies in: "What is the correct way to serve God?" "What is the best way to create meaning in our lives?" "Is there a way that is better than my current way of serving God?" "Am I serving God spiritually or physically? … or both?"
I think my understanding of this topic still too shallow. I don’t think I will ever stop searching for the meaning of life nor will I stop creating my own meaning of life. So Stay tuned for more In the future, I will post about how I go about creating the meaning of life and the adventures I stumble upon ^_^

12.3.1. Particle Trajectory Diffusion Analysis¶
Author: Leland Barnard Acknowledgments to: Amy Bengtson, Saumitra Saha
Computes mean squared displacements and tracer diffusion coefficients from particle position data as a function of time.
Version 1.13 - published on 28 Mar 2014
- You must download and unzip the MAST tar.gz file from https://github.com/uw-cmg/MAST/releases in order to access the source code, which is in MAST/standalone/diffanalyzer, and will likely need to be recompiled for your machine.
This tool takes as input particle position data from methods such as molecular dynamics or kinetic Monte Carlo and computes the mean squared displacement for all particles as a function of time. For a system with multiple types of particles, the mean squared displacement is computed for each particle type. The tracer diffusion coefficient is then calculated from the slope of the mean squared displacement vs time curve.
The tool is based on The Working Man’s Guide to Obtaining Self Diffusion Coefficients from Molecular Dynamics Simulations by Professor David Keffer from UT Knoxville.
<IP_ADDRESS>. Input file format:¶
This tool reads in atomic position data in the VASP XDATCAR format. This file format begins with the following set of lines:
Name
C1 C2 C3 ...
N1 N2 N3 ...
Direct
- The first line is a name or description of the file. It is not read by the tool.
- The second line are the names of the components in the system. These will be element names in the case of an atomic simulation.
- The third line are the number of particles of each component in the system.
- The final line is a VASP generated line that specifies direct atomic coordinates.
- Following these 4 lines, the file must have 1 blank line, and then the particle position data begins on line 6. Particle positions must be in fractional or direct coordinates, and a single line must separate the blocks of particle positions at each time step throughout the file.
<IP_ADDRESS>. Calculation of error on the diffusion coefficient:¶
The error bars on the mean squared displacements represent a single standard deviation in the measurements of the squared displacements over all time origins.
The error in the diffusion coefficient represents the standard error in the slope of the weighted least squares fit to the mean squared displacement, using the variance in the squared displacements as the error weight.

Mauricio Pochettino hurt by Spurs’ sorry start
by By Press AssociationTottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino admits he is hurt by seeing his side in the bottom half of the Premier League.
A terrible start to the campaign, amid a backdrop of dressing-room unrest and misfiring players, has seen Spurs win just three of their opening 10 games.
They are closer to the relegation zone than they are the top four going into Sunday’s visit to Everton, which has taken on extra significance.
Spurs have not been this low in the table since the first few weeks of Pochettino’s reign and the Argentinian is not enjoying looking at the standings.
“The most important thing is how we’re going to finish, it’s not this moment,” he said. “It’s not nice to see us in the middle of the table, but that’s the reality that we need to accept and by accepting that we can only improve.
“If not you’re going to struggle. In our minds, we need time, need to be strong, be solid and start to win.
“We need to be positive, feel that positivity and make us believe that we can beat any team.
“At the moment we struggle with our confidence, we drop a lot. That’s only time.”
Spurs’ dreadful start has not been restricted to the league as they suffered an embarrassing defeat to League Two side Colchester in the Carabao Cup third round.
That did at least allow them a free week this week, which was spent rebuilding confidence after Sunday’s 2-1 defeat at Liverpool.
“It was an important week to recover the feelings after a tough game against Liverpool,” Pochettino added.
“It’s important again to create that and achieve all what you want. It’s a situation that only we can fix by winning games.
“We know very well it is our responsibility to deliver a very good job and very good performance on Sunday against a very good team like Everton trying to win because it’s going to be the best medicine to fix all.”

Mum speaks of horrific moment she was told her daughter was going to die
'It had been nine hours since she was playing Lego cards with me'
by Jonathan Coles, SWNS, Briana MillettThe mum of a teen who died after an MRI scan has spoken of the moment she was told her daughter couldn't be saved - just hours after they played Lego cards together.
Alice Sloman died on October 19 last year after a three-day battle, an inquest heard today (Monday, December 9).
The 14-year-old had visited Torbay Hospital in Devon with her mum and grandmother on October 16 for the examination to be carried out under general anaesthetic.
But it soon became clear something was wrong during the procedure so Alice was rushed to Bristol Children's Hospital for critical care.
Despite the efforts of staff there she died.
Giving evidence at her inquest, Alice's mum Sarah relived the moment she was told her daughter was going to die.
She said: "As soon as we got there [to Bristol] they assessed her.
"They took us in a room and told us there's nothing they can do for her - she's going to die. We said we didn't have time to digest this.

"I asked them please, just try something to bring her back."
The inquest heard that staff at Bristol Children's Hospital tried in vain to save the teenager.
She suffered several problems over the three-day period including renal failure, high blood pressure and a fluctuating heart rate.
She was put on life support but eventually died at around 2pm on October 19 after suffering a pulmonary hemmorghage hours before.
The medical cause of death is yet to be determined by the coroner, Dr Simon Fox, QC.
Giving evidence in a statement, Dr Margrid Schindler from Bristol Children's Hospital said: "It was explained to the parents that Alice was very unlikely to survive.
"They then agreed that the didn't want her to suffer anymore so she received care to make her comfortable."
The hearing was told Alice, who had a mental age of a five or six year old, suffered from several issues for much of her life including autism, hypermobility, visual impairment and growth.
She took hormones for the latter for several years although had stopped prior to visiting Torbay Hospital on that fateful day.
Alice, from Torquay, Devon, had been admitted for the MRI after complaining of headaches.
Mum Sarah revealed she was "terrified" after first hearing this - because she didn't want her daughter to find out information that could hurt her.
She said: "My concern was, why are you doing an MRI?
"I said she's getting these headaches - I don't want her to hear she's getting a tumour. I was worried it might show something in her brain - I was terrified."
But she added she wasn't concerned about her daughter having an MRI or going under anaesthetic generally as she had had one several years earlier - with no problems.
Alice eventually visited Torbay Hospital and was highly anxious ahead of the procedure.
The hearing was told she showed both high blood pressure and a high heart rate when tested, although this was attributed to her nerves.
There was also a change in the amount of general anaesthetic she was administered after it was decided the initial dose would be too high.
She was then wheeled down to the MRI room with her mum on the trolley before Sarah left to find some food.
But when she came back it was clear something was wrong.
She said: "There were alarms going off behind the closed doors.
"The first thing was that they thought she had had an allergic reaction to the anaesthetic.
'We were allowed to give her a kiss'
"We were allowed to see her in the MRI quickly - she was surrounded by I don't know how many people.
"We were allowed to give her a kiss while they carried on doing what they were doing to her."
The transfer team then arrived before Alice was taken to Bristol later than evening - where she later died.
While giving evidence, mum Sarah questioned whether her daughter's heart could have been enlarged by the growth hormone.
She said: "If it raises your weight and height what else is it growing?
"How can you give growth hormone to a child then not check everything else is growing? How can you stick it in a particular part of the body?
The inquest at Avon Coroner's Court continues.

Flickr is an image hosting and video hosting website, web services suite, and online community created by Ludicorp and later acquired by Yahoo!. In addition to being a popular website for users to share and embed personal photographs, the service is widely used by bloggers to host images that they embed in blogs and social media.[2] In September 2010, it reported that it was hosting more than 5 billion images.[3] For mobile users, Flickr has an official app for iPhone[4] and BlackBerry[5] but not for other mobile devices. Several 3rd party apps offer alternatives such as flickr hd[6] for iPad.
Flickr offers two types of accounts: Free and Pro. Free account users are allowed to upload 300 MB of images a month and 2 videos. Also, if a free user has more than 200 photos on the site, they will only be able to see the most recent 200 in their photostream. The other photos that were uploaded are still stored on the site and links to these images in blog posts remain active. Free users can also contribute to a maximum of 10 photo pools. If a free account is inactive for 90 consecutive days, it will be deleted.[21] For a free account, no one (including the account owner) can access the original file. If the account is upgraded to a pro account, then the original files are available for download.
Pro accounts allow users to upload an unlimited number of images and videos every month and receive unlimited bandwidth and storage. Photos may be placed in up to 60 group pools, and Pro account users receive ad-free browsing and have access to account statistics. As soon as a Pro account expires, it reverts back to the restrictions of a free account, including Flickr reserving the right to delete an account that is "inactive for 90 consecutive days".
Flickr asks photo submitters to organize images using tags (a form of metadata), which enable searchers to find images related to particular topics, such as place names or subject matter. Flickr was also an early website to implement tag clouds, which provide access to images tagged with the most popular keywords. Because of its support for tags, Flickr has been cited as a prime example of effective use of folksonomy, although Thomas Vander Wal suggested Flickr is not the best example.
Flickr also enables users to organize their photos into "sets", or groups of photos that fall under the same heading. Sets can be displayed as a slideshow and shared by embedding them in websites. However, sets are more flexible than the traditional folder-based method of organizing files, as one photo can belong to one set, many sets, or none at all. Flickr's "sets", then, represent a form of categorical metadata rather than a physical hierarchy. Geotagging can be applied to photos in set.[23] Any sets with geotagging can be related to a map using imapflicker. The resulting map can be embedded in a website.[24] Sets may be grouped into "collections", and collections further grouped into higher-order collections.
In March 2007, Flickr added new content filtering controls that let members specify by default what types of images they generally upload (photo, art/illustration, or screenshot) and how "safe" (i.e., unlikely to offend others) their images are, as well as specify that information for specific images individually.[29] In addition, users can specify the same criteria when searching for images. There are some restrictions on searches for certain types of users: non-members must always use SafeSearch, which omits images noted as potentially offensive, while members whose Yahoo! accounts indicate that they are underage may use SafeSearch or moderate SafeSearch, but cannot turn SafeSearch off completely.
Flickr has since used this setting to change the level of accessibility to "unsafe" content for entire nations, including South Korea, Hong Kong, and Germany. In summer 2007, German users staged a "revolt" over being assigned to the user rights of a minor.
Flickr offers users the ability to either release their images under certain common usage licenses or label them as "all rights reserved". The licensing options primarily include the Creative Commons 2.0 attribution-based and minor content-control licenses - although jurisdiction and version-specific licenses cannot be selected. As with "tags", the site allows easy searching of only those images that fall under a specific license.

Template specializations look like the template definitions that they are specializing, but they omit one or more of the type parameters, replacing them with specific types instead. The myriad uses of template specializations are beyond the scope of this book, but you should know that they exist, and that they are useful for making decisions about types during compilation.
14-0. Compile, execute, and test the programs in this chapter.
14-1. Implement the comparison operation that operates on Ptr<Core>
.
14-2. Implement and test the student grading program using Ptr<Core>
objects.
14-3. Implement the Student_info
class to use the final version of Ptr
, and use that version to
implement the grading program from §13.5/247.
14-4. Reimplement the Str
class to use the final version of Ptr
.
14-5. Test the reimplemented Str
class by recompiling and rerunning programs that use Str
,
such as the version of split
and the picture operations that use a Vec<Str>
.
14-6. The Ptr
class really solves two problems: maintaining reference counts, and allocating and
deallocating objects. Define a class that does reference counting and nothing else; then use
that class to reimplement the Ptr
class.

Overview
Manage global properties of EVS(Elastic Virtual Switch) for both client and controller. There are two instances associated with contoller and client properties respectively


The application uses several different directories.
The system might need temporary storage place, too. This area is normally transparent for the user. For the normal operation, however, the user needs the corresponding access rights and storage quota on that device. The system sets it up automatically, asking for the system-wide temporary subdirectory and prepares a subdirectory (using the name and version of the tool) in it.
Normally, the system provides a system-wide area for this goal. If that area can be used, the program creates a separate subdirectory in it, i.e. the temporary data will be stored in
TempDir/PackageName
If for any reason, that area is not available for the program, it creates a subdirectory in the user's home directory, i.e. in such a case the temporary files go in subdirectory
UserHome/PACKAGE_NAME/temp

We’re presented with a series of satellite photos at very different scales. There are 5 images that are so large we can identify them just by browsing around Google Maps in satellite mode. It helps to turn off labels while doing this.
It turns out all of these images are within the United States. By looking at the map, and using geographic features like the Appalachian Mountains, Lake Erie, Great Salt Lake, the Rocky Mountains and the Chesapeake Bay to help orient our search, we can find the 5 outermost photos:
In the process of getting here, we may notice some of the smaller images are cities inside the bounds of these largest images. Other routes to noticing this include reverse image searching the city-sized images (e.g. Boise, ID) or noticing the different color palettes of the images from different parts of the country.
Seeing that some of these images are essentially “zoomed-in” versions of each other, we might look at the medium-scale images, trying to find them inside the large-scale ones. Repeating this process as we zoom further in, we can eventually locate the precise locations of the 5 stars.
Download a google-earth file with all the locations in this puzzle marked here.
Now that we have identified the images, we need to figure out what to do next. Since the images are placed so precisely on the page and intermingled among one another, we might try drawing lines from each step to the next most zoomed-in one.
Reading in stars-from-left-to-right order (rainbow order in the above image), we read out WHAT 3, which tells us to look at the What 3 Words address of each starred place. Note that these addresses are very precise so we must be very careful locating the exact position of the stars.
| Place | What 3 Words? |
|---|---|
| Garden City, ID | ///vague.dots.exile |
| Dayton, OH | ///vest.dots.wings |
| Akron, OH | ///vest.rips.vague |
| Richmond, VA | ///stuff.dots.quit |
| Baltimore, MD | ///exile.tube.wings |
Looking at these addresses, we notice that they have a lot of words in common. To be precise, dots
appears 3 times, and each of vest
, vague
, wings
and exile
appear twice each. This fact, combined with the grid at the bottom of the page, suggests that we try to fill the words into a 3×3 grid. There’s only one way to do this (modulo reflection across the main diagonal):
| vest | stuff | exile |
| rips | dots | tube |
| vague | quit | wings |
We are given the locations for the diagonals and the verticals, which suggests reading the acrosses. In fact, we find that all three of them are what3words locations in Cambridge, MA: ///vest.stuff.exile, ///rips.dots.tube, and ///vague.quit.wings.
All of these are locations of Clover Food Lab, a vegetarian fast-food restaurant. The box with three blanks at the bottom of the puzzle suggests the answer is three words, so the answer is CLOVER FOOD LAB.


WEEK 25 TUESDAY
Year 1 (Year 2)
FIRST READING Ezra 6:7-8.12.14-20
They finished the house of God, and kept the Passover.
A reading from the Book of Ezra
In those days: Darius the King wrote to the governors of the province
Beyond the River, “Let the work on this house of God alone; let the governor of
the Jews and the elders of the Jews rebuild this house of God on its site.
Moreover I make a decree regarding what you shall do for these elders of the
Jews for the rebuilding of this house of God; the cost is to be paid to these
men in full and without delay from the royal revenue, the tribute of the
province from Beyond the River. “I Darius make a decree; let it be done with
all diligence.” And the elders of the Jews built and prospered, through the
prophesying of Haggai the prophet and Zechariah the son of Iddo. They finished
their building by command of the God of Israel and by decree of Cyrus and
Darius and Artaxerxes king of
The word of the Lord
RESPONSORIAL PSALM Psalm 122:1-2.3-4ab.4cd-5 (R. see 1)
R. Let us go rejoicing to the house of the Lord.
I rejoiced when they said to me, 'Let us go to the house of the LORD.'
And now our feet are standing within your gates, O Jerusalem.
R. Let us go rejoicing to the house of the Lord.
R. Let us go rejoicing to the house of the Lord.
For
R. Let us go rejoicing to the house of the Lord.
FIRST READING Proverbs 21:1-6.10-13
Various sayings.
A reading from the Book of Proverbs
The king's heart is a stream of water in the hand of the LORD; he turns
it wherever he will. Every way of a man is right in his own eyes, but the LORD
weighs the heart. To do righteousness and justice is more acceptable to the
LORD than sacrifice. Haughty eyes and a proud heart, the lamp of the wicked,
are sin. The plans of the diligent lead surely to abundance, but every one who
is hasty comes only to want. The getting of treasures by a lying tongue is a
fleeting vapour and a snare of death. The soul of the wicked desires evil; his
neighbour finds no mercy in his eyes. When a scoffer is punished, the simple
becomes wise; when a wise man is instructed, he gains knowledge. The righteous
observes the house of the wicked; the wicked are cast down to ruin. He who
closes his ear to the cry of the poor will himself cry out and not be heard.
The word of the Lord
RESPONSORIAL PSALM Psalm 119:<IP_ADDRESS>.35.44 (R. 35a)
R. Guide me, Lord, in the path of your commands.
Blessed are those whose
way is blameless, who walk in the law of the LORD!
R. Guide me, Lord, in the path of your commands.

R. Guide me, Lord, in the path of your commands.
I have chosen the way of faithfulness; your decrees
I have upheld.
R. Guide me, Lord, in the path of your commands.
Grant me insight that I may keep your law, and
observe it wholeheartedly.
R. Guide me, Lord, in the path of your commands.
Guide me in the path of your commands; for in them
is my delight.
R. Guide me, Lord, in the path of your commands.
I shall always keep your law, for ever and ever.
R. Guide me, Lord, in the path of your commands.
R. Alleluia. Blessed are those who hear the word of God, and keep it. R. Alleluia.
GOSPEL Luke 8:19-21
“My mother and my brethren are those who hear the word of God and do it.”
A reading from the holy Gospel according to Luke
At that time: His mother and his brethren came to Jesus, but they could
not reach him for the crowd. And he was told, "Your mother and your
brethren are standing outside, desiring to see you." But he said to them,
"My mother and my brethren are those who hear the word of God and do
it."
The Gospel of the Lord

Unity Achievements System Tutorial
In this series of tutorials I will demonstrate how to create a modularized system of achievements. In this part I will show you how to use Coroutines to create linear movement and wait method. For messaging between object I’ll use EventManager. You can read more about those topics if you are not familiar with it. …
-
Unity EventManager
This is one of the most useful concepts I use in my games. It’s good to implement it in early stage of prototyping. It will make your code look cleaner and increase the performance of the project. I encourage you to read the posts about events and dictionary before moving to this topic, if you are not familiar with those concepts it may be confusing for you. …
-
Unity Linear Interpolation
Linear interpolation has many uses. I’ll try to cover the most useful ones. This paragraph may be confusing, but everything will be explained in details later. Important thing to point out at the beginning, online tutorial tend to have two different approaches to this subject. First, like in official video, shows example of Lerp() function which is not linear. Another approach is to use percentage as time parameter. Lerp() can be used together with Vector3 and Math class. It’s common to use Math.Lerp() to change parameters like light intensity, colour or sprite transparency. While Vector3 is responsible for 3d movement. Lets start with example of changing light intensity in non linear way using Lerp()function.
Math.Lerp()
The Mathf.Lerp function takes 3 float parameters: one representing the value to interpolate from; another representing the value to interpolate to and a final float representing how far to interpolate. In this case, the interpolation value is 0.5 which means 50%.
This one returns 4, (0+8)*0.5. …float result = Mathf.Lerp (0f, 8f, 0.5f);
-
Unity Coroutines
Using Coroutines is a great way of improving the performance of the game. This way we can avoid using Update() by calling the selected method exactly when we want it, and stop it after execution. This way we don’t have to perform check operations in Update() method every frame, what’s slowing down the performance. Even the simplest check performed on multiple objects can slow have significant impact on the game frame rate, especially on mobile devices. …
-
C# IEnumerable Interface
IEnumerable is the implementation of the iterator pattern and is used to give the ability to iterate a class without knowing its internal structure. This Interface exposes the enumerator, which supports a simple iteration over a collection of a specified type. When a class implements IEnumerable, it can be enumerated. This means you can use a foreach block to iterate over that type. In C# all collections implements this interface. …
-
C# Yield Return
Yield return key-phrase that is used to return a value of the collection instead of returning the full list. It can be explained with example of watching a video. Yield is like streaming the video, while typical implementation is like downloading it. This phrase interacts with foreach loop, it iterates through collection of items, returns an item and gets called over and over again, but each time it resumes execution where it left off. It’s easier to read, and can have better performance than typical implementation. …

Lee Zeldin on Impeachment: 'This Is Going to Get Worse, Not Better, for the Democrats' | Breitbart
by Trent BakerDuring a Sunday interview with New York AM 970 “The Cats Roundtable” host John Catsimatidis, Rep. Lee Zeldin (R-NY) weighed in on the ongoing impeachment “charade.”
After declaring impeachment would be “dead on arrival in the Senate,” Zeldin predicted things will “get worse, not better, for the Democrats” because of the lack of legislation getting passed.
“Even if they do pass it, this is dead on arrival in the Senate,” argued Zeldin. “And the trial that will be held in the Senate is one that is not going to fit the Democratic narrative well, it’s not going to serve Adam Schiff well, so this is going to get worse, not better, for the Democrats if they continue this path.”
“There are a lot of people who believe that we should be focused instead on passing different bills and agreements that will move our country forward. The USMCA would result in more jobs in the U.S., more investment in the U.S., increased GDP. We’d have a stronger economy. Nancy Pelosi should be giving American workers the win … and pass USMCA,” he added.

If you remember well, we were using PU foam in the insulation box that will keep the electronics of Octanis working at 100%
Well, now we're trying a new material that is easier than the foam to shape, we are currently running a long test in both (the PU foam and the rock wool).
We covered the interior of the a cardboard box with a 4cm layer of rock wool, and with out any heating source we were able to kept the inner temperature in an environment of -77°C during 24 hours.
This result is incredibly promising, and inspire us to run a test during a longer period of time.
If you want to know more about this experiment and the thermal insulation , you may want to visit our wiki.


# Example This shows a "plain" use of Remark.js fails in rendering by MathJax. This works: $$\sum_{a_i\in A_j}f(a_i)$$ but this fails: $$\sum_{i=1}^n \lVert a_i \Vert_\infty$$ This is because the source: ``` $$\sum_{i=1}^n \lVert a_i \Vert_\infty$$ ``` is converted as: ``` $$\sum
